Boston College (1-2) vs. Wagner (2-0) Game Preview

Broadcast

Boston College could use nothing more than an easy layup of a win after the offense sputtered and struggled against Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, and a surprising UMass offense to start the season, and what does it get?

A plucky FCS team with an amazing defense.

Okay, so there’s no reason to go too overboard against a team that beat St. Anselm and Concordia, but the Seahawks have a rock of a secondary so far, it’s forcing mistakes, and the ground game is just good enough to be a bother if the BC offense isn’t controlling the game from the start.

This is the first real home game of the year for the Eagles, starting a run of four in a row and five of the next six dates. Win this, beat Buffalo, and then it’s time to D up with Clemson coming to town.

Just don’t embarrass yourself in what should be a grind of a slugfest for a little while, at least until the Eagle ground game finally gets into a groove in the second half.
